No. They are great schools. I went to Smith and appreciated the classes, close relationships with my professors and the post-college contacts. And I had no learning disabilities.

The percentage of Smith students registered with disability services is whoppingly high: 38%.

Guess what? A lot of people have disabilities and not all are learning disabilities. This number even includes students with food allergies that require dining accommodations and all number of other conditions that would affect students in housing, classrooms, etc. You may want to check your assumptions about disabilities and broaden your view of accessibility.
